Capão Valley Trek to Fumaça Waterfall

Meet your tour guide at a pre-decided location at 8:30 AM and set out for Capão Valley.
Begin your 6-kilometre hike to the top of Fumaça Waterfall. It is considered the highest waterfall in Brazil, with a free fall of 360 metres (1,170 feet). At certain times of the year, when there is not much water, the falling water does not reach the ground because strong winds blow it back up, creating stunning rainbow formations.
On the way back, behold a wonderful view of Morrão Mountain.
Conclude your journey with a swim in Riachinho Waterfall.
